Most Common Questions

With other custom photo books, it can take 10-15 hours to sift through all the photos on your phone and turn them into a finished book. You struggle to remember those cute details or on which date important milestones happened, but all you end up with is a blank thought bubble above your head and nothing to write in your book.
Instead, the Story Snap Books App reminds you to answer some basic prompts and upload photos of your memories as they happen, so you can create a finished photo book in just 5 minutes per week. That's why Story Snap is the easiest app to make a photo book on your phone or desktop.

A damaged or defective book is almost as rare as spotting a three-horned rhino in the produce aisle. If it does happen though, please send us a message within one week of receiving your book, so we can send a replacement right away. (Be sure to ping us if you spot that rhino too.)
Because all of our photo books are 100% customized and unique to you, we cannot issue a refund for design errors like typos, low resolution of your original photos, or layout errors. However, the app will alert you of any low-quality photo issues. Just be sure to replace those images before ordering your book.
You should also be aware that there may be color differences between your home computer and our printing system.
